AR carry handle mount
« on: March 06, 2006, 08:47:49 AM »
Anyone Know of a good scope mount for the carry handle on a AR that doesn't constantly loosen up and will hold a scope on it's zero?

Another Question  With a A3 upper how much of a bother does the front sight tree make in the scope's sight picture?

I have one of the luepolds that is pretty much like all the others. One thumbscrew in the middle. I drilled and taped the handle/scope mount for two small flat head screws. That works really well.   KN

I just bought a Rock River mount for mine to use when I work up loads for it and varmint hunt. It was of higher quality than I expected for $49, and the rings are integrated into the base. I do not know about returning to zero after removing it, but plan on finding out tomorrow when I go to the range to test some new loads. I see no reason why it should not return to zero as it is a good fit.

Went to range today and reinstalled Scope mount (screws hand tight), and the zero was right were it was when the scope was removed. I would highly recommend the Rock River Hi Riser mount.
